fresh...

I just had a craving for fresh today. Jack was grilling some steaks and that sounded good, but what to cook to go along with it, mac & cheese or rice or potatoes, those things just sounded 'heavy' to me. I wanted light and fresh. I've wanted it since Christmas break, I think.

So - while some penne pasta was bubbling, I threw together a quick stirfry of diced squash, sliced onion, a little garlic, diced Roma tomatoes, and a little can of sliced mushrooms. At the end of the cooking, I stirred in some cilantro, a dash of Worcestershire, and a sprinkle of Tony Chachere's and some additional salt. With some fresh grated Parmesan, it was...

It was just want I'd been wanting...fresh and light.
